Through God’s Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Old Jim he lived on the edge of town He walked the streets morning to sundown We all knew his name But we called him crazy He'd pick up cans just to get by Doin' what he could to survive Had an old dog that never left his side He called Daisy The whole town warned me to stay away from him I used to wonder who was better Those people or Jim [Chorus] 'Cause if the world is round And we all breathe air We all laugh and we all get scared We all have our shared good and bad times Yeah we've all got a heart And we've all got a soul And on the day that we're born We all start to grow old Think about it It really comes as no surprise We all look the same through God's eyes [Verse 2] Bill he's sittin' on cellblock 5 Killed a man for messin' with his wife Probably gonna spend the rest of his life in prison When he put that ring on Delila's hand He never thought she'd find another man He never dreamed that he'd have to make that decision When he fired those shots Did he buy himself a ticket to Hell I don't think Heaven's any further away From a church than a jail cell [Chorus] 'Cause if the world is round And we all breathe air We all laugh and we all get scared We all have our shared good and bad times Yeah we've all got a heart We've all got a soul And on the day that we're born We all start to grow old Think about it It really comes as no surprise We all look the same through God's eyes [Verse 3] A wino livin' in an old Dodge van A preacher with a bible in his hand A long haired guitar picker in a hillbilly van As far as he's concerned There ain't much difference you see Between Jim, the preacher, the wino and Bill and me [Chorus] 'Cause if the world is round And we all breathe air We all laugh and we all get scared We all have our shared good and bad times Yeah we've all got a heart We've all got a soul And on the day that we're born We all start to grow old Think about it It really comes as no surprise We all look the same through God's eyes Yeah through God's eyes
